About the Author
Cynthai Martin was a hand quilter unitl she had her second child. She then found that time was very important to her so in order to continue quilting; it would be done by machine. Since making the switch, she has completed more quilts than in all her previous years by hand. She finds machine quilting very relaxing.

A Good Book But...,
By
This review is from: Machine Quilting Primer (Quilt in a Day) (Quilt in a Day Series) (Paperback)
The directions for machine quilting are excellent. But my quilts are not 18 inches in size. It is very easy to move a tiny quilt around under the sewing machine foot. I want directions on how to quilt a bed size quilt. And so in this respect, the book lacks.
